[CQ-Contest] QSX frequency

[Jukka Klemola]

The best of the best will start to spot the pileup frequency and give
the DX's RX QRG in the free text field of the spot.

That will mix up the fastest of the fastest !


Have FUN !
FUN seems like an endangered species here on Contest reflector.

Like someone wrote a couple of years ago:
Oh Boy. We all need a contest. Fast!
